​This week have invited parents who have given us their email, to join QParents. It is a web and mobile
application provides an easier way for them to interact with our school. Parents
will have secure, online access to their child’s student information, anytime,
anywhere, through a smartphone, tablet or computer.

QParents allows parents to
connect instantly with our school to access and manage their child’s student
information, including:

Attendance and absence details, as well as the ability to notify the school of an absence

Greater transparency of information

ØImproves
accountability between parents and schools by providing parents with timely
access to their child’s information online.

ØAllows
parents to engage more deeply in their child’s schooling.

Improved administration efficiencies for
schools

ØAllows
schools to streamline their administrative processes and cut down on printing.

What do you need to do to get started?

We are inviting one parent
or guardian for each student to become a QParents Account Owner (QPAO). The
QPAO will be able to register for QParents to access and manage the student’s
information online. A student’s QPAO will be able to view the student’s
information and submit requests to update some of the student’s details.

The QPAO will also be able to
invite other people (such as another parent or family member), to view the
student’s information. Once invited, these people can register for QParents as
“delegated viewers”. A delegated viewer can see the student’s details, but
cannot make updates.

Upon the return of the attached QPAO nomination form, you will receive
your invitation email. From that email, simply follow the instructions to
register your QParents account. The process should take less than 10 minutes to
complete. Invitations sent by email will only ever come from no.reply@qparents.qld.edu.au.
You will not be invited to register from any other email address or
organisation.

If you do no not want to
register you can just ignore the invitation and your child’s student
information will not be available to anyone through QParents.

Identity Verification – (upon receipt of the invitation email)

When registering as a QPAO,
you will need to verify 100 points of identity documents online. The 100 points
can be made up of documents in the following list:

Australian
Passport

50
pts

Australian
Marriage Certificate

40
pts

Australian
Driver Licence

50
pts

Australian
Citizenship Certificate

40
pts

Australian
Birth Certificate

50
pts

Change
of Name Certificate

40
pts

Medicare
Card

20
pts

Australian
Visa (foreign passports)

20
pts

If you only have 60-90 points
of the above ID documents you can still register for QParents, but you will
need to attend the school for an additional check after you have registered
online. If you don’t have sufficient documents, you might like to nominate
another parent as the QPAO.

EQ ID

You will also need to have
your child’s EQ ID (their Education Queensland identification number) in order
to complete your QParents registration. This is available from OneSchool, which
you have just used to complete subject selections online. It is in the top
right hand corner of the OneSchool screen when your student logs on (oslp.eq.edu.au).

Safe and secure

QParents is a secure portal
that meets strict industry standards. The Department of Education and Training
considers student information to be confidential (it is classified as PROTECTED
by the Department). Only people with the right to access information about
their child will be given an account. Additionally, as part of the registration
process, 100 points of identity will need to be presented to prove that the
person who is registering is the person the school invited.
